Spring Clean: Devotions for Lent or Anytime Your Spirit Needs a Fresh Start (Seasons)

Words for clean and pure occur over 300 times in the Bible; this collection of meditations for the season of Lent invites readers to take a deep (contextual) and wide (for all times) look into these scriptures and stories. From Shrove (Pancake) Tuesday through Easter, daily devotions offer small groups, Sunday school classes, book clubs, and/or individual devotees a chance to explore what it means to be clean and pure in spirit—as individuals, as well as in families and communities.

Each entry includes a Bible reading, application, reflection, prayer points, and suggested action steps to help move Lent beyond a season of mere ritual deprivation into a sacred cleansing of ourselves inside and out, an unearthing of who God always created us to be.
